A suspected arsonist in Corona, California, learned a painful lesson after accidentally setting himself on fire while trying to ignite a parked car.
Ring doorbell footage captured the shocking moment the suspect engulfed himself in flames before frantically fleeing the scene. Despite the botched attempt, authorities say the fire completely destroyed the vehicle and caused moderate damage to the nearby residence.
Incredibly, the suspect is still on the run, leaving behind only charred remains of the crime scene—and likely some serious burns.
Police are urging the public to help identify the walking fire hazard before he strikes again.
